As it happens a combination of setting a background picture, (System Settings/Background) having startup application remember running applications on logout (Activities/Applications/Other/Startup Applications/Options) and having File Manager control the desktop (Activities/Applications/Accessories/Tweak Advanced Settings/File Manager) causes an infinite loop on logout and login. Gnome shell starts, loads the desktop, then crashes and comes back with the login screen. The only solution I found so far, is deleting $HOME/.config/dconf/user from a terminal. One sequence of events to reproduce the behaviour is: 1. Log in 2. Select a background image (User/System Settings/Background) 3. Have startup applications remember running applications on logout (Activities/Applications/Other/Startup Applications/Options) 4. Set File Manager to control the Desktop (Activities/Applications/Accesories/Tweak Advanced Settings/File Manager check the checkbox) 5. Log out 6. Log back in 7.
